Pharmacology 9/16/08

QuestionAnswer
Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) A reflection of the average blood pressure in the body
Two equations to describe and calculate MAP MAP = CO x TPR,MAP = Diastolic pressure + 1/3 (systolic pressure - diastolic pressure)
Total peripheral resistance (TPR) The resistance to blood flow generated by the circulatory system
Cardiac Output (CO) The amount of blood pumped by the left ventricle per contraction (~5L/min.) CO = HR x SV
Stroke volume (SV) The amount of blood ejected from the left ventricle per contraction (~70ml) SV = EDV - ESV
End diastolic volume (EDV) Amount of blood in the left ventricle at eh end of diastole (relaxation) ~120ml
End systolic volume (ESV) Amount of blood remaining in the left ventricle following systole (contraction) ~50 ml
Preload EDV or the amount of blood in the ventricle prior to contraction
Afterload The force against which the heart must work in order to eject blood from the left ventricle into the aortaIt is a reflection of TPR
Contractility The performance of the heart (force of contraction of cardiac muscle) at any given preload and afterload
Frank-Starling Relationship States that as preload increases, cardiac contractility will increase
Normal BP Classification Systolic: <120 Diastolic: <80 Initial Screening/Recommended Follow up: 2 yrs
PreHTN Classification Systolic: 120-139 Diastolic: 80-89 Initial Screening/Recommended Follow up: Within 1 year
Stage I HTN Classification Systolic: 140-159 Diastolic: 90-99 Initial Screening/Recommended Follow up: Within 2 months
Stage II HTN Classification Systolic: >160 Diastolic: >100 Initial Screening/Recommended Follow up: 1 week to 1 month
Life Style Changes to lower BP Extra Rest Vacations Less Stress Weight Reduction Sodium Reduction Limit alcohol consumption Exercise
ACE Inhibitors: MOA MOA: Suppresses renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system which prevents angiotensinI from converting to angiotensinII Reduces peripheral resistance.
ACE Inhibitors: Indication and ADR Ind: Tx of HTN; adjunctive therapy for CHF, diabetic nephropathy ADR: COUGH, dry mouth, rash, change or decrease in sense of taste, orthostatic hypotension upon initial therapy Nephrotic syndrome: agranulocytosis, neutropernia
Capoten Captopril ACE Inhibitor
Vasotec Enalapril ACE Inhibitor
Lotensin Benzapril ACE Inhibitor
Monopril Fosinopril ACE Inhibitor
Accupril Quinopril ACE Inhibitor
Altace Ramipril ACE Inhibitor
Univasc Meoxipril ACE Inhibitor
Mavik Trandolapril ACE Inhibitor
Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker ADR Pregnancy Category C (1st trimester) Category D (2nd and 3rd trimester) ADR: same as ACE Inhibitors but do not see a cough
ARB: MOA Block the effects of angiotensin II by blocking the binding of angiotensin II to its receptors
Cozaar Losartan ARB
Diovan Valsartan ARB
Atacand Candesartan ARB
CCB: Indication and ADR Ind: HTN, Angina, Arrhythmias ADR: dizziness, flushing, HA, peripheral edema Pregnancy Category C
CCB: MOA Inhibit extracellular Ca from crossing cell membrane. Relaxes smooth muscle, depresses HR. Decrease coronary vascular resistance, increase coronary blood flow, reduce myocardial oxygen demand.

Midamor Amiloride Diuretic: Potassium sparing
Aldactone Spironolactone Diuretic: Potassium sparing
Inspra Eplerenone Diuretic: Potassium sparing
Loop Diuretics: MOA Inhibit reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the ascending loop of Henle, interfering with the chloride-binding co-transport system. Causes increased excretion of water, Na, Cl, Mg, and Ca.
Loop Diuretics: Indication/Contraindication Ind: HTN, management of edema in CHF and hepatic or renal disease CI: Severe Hyponatremia, Severe Hypokalemia, Anuria, Sulfa allergy, Nursing mothers/infants
Loop Diuretics: ADR Hyponatremia, Hypokalemia, Hypomagnesemia, Hypocalcemia, Hyperuricemia, Dehydration, Ototoxicity, Tinnitus
Thiazide Diuretics: MOA Inhibits Na reabsorption in the distal tubule causing increased secretion of Na, water, potassium, and hydrogen.
Thiazide Diuretics: Indications/Contraindications Ind: Mild to moderate HTN, treatment of edema in CHF and nephrotic syndrome CI: Anuria, sulfa allergy
Thiazide Diuretics: MOA Inhibits Na reabsorption in the distal tubule causing increased secretion of Na.
Thiazide Diuretics: ADR Hypokalemia, Hyponatremia, Hypocholoremia, Hypomagnesemia, Hyperuricemia, Hypercalcemia, Hyperphosphemia, Dehydration, Hypotensioin, Hyperlipidemia, Hyperglycemia, Erectile dysfunction
Potassium Sparing Diuretics: MOA Blocks Na channels in the luminal membrane of the distal convoluted tubule and cortical collecting duct, thus inhibiting the elimination of potassium.
Spironolactone: Indication Potassium Sparing Diuretic Ind: HTN, edema associated with excessive aldosterone excretion, hypokalemia Pregnancy Category D
Spironolactone: MOA Potassium Sparing Diuretic MOA: Competes with aldosterone for receptor sites in distal renal tubules, increasing NaCl and water excretion while conserving K levels
Spironolactone: ADR Hyperkalemia, Arrhythmia, Confusion, Deepening of voice in females, Increased hair growth in females, Erectile Dysfunction, Increased thirst
Beta Adrenoceptor Antagonists: "Beta Blockers" Indications HTN, CAD, CHF (metoprolol and carvedilol only), beneficial in Angina and Atrial fibrillation.
